Plumb Tech 24/7 WTF Hill Challenge (Social Ride Strava Challenge)

[Trackz]

Pretoria East MTB is a Facebook Group that loves MTB. On Saturday 20 September our group is doing the WTF Hill Challenge to see who can ride the hill the most times between 6h00 and 11h00. WTF is a Strava segment in Pretoria East. It is not an organized race, it is a social group ride.

Just a reminder for the arrangements:

- The WTF Hill Challenge is a self regulated normal Saturday social ride, it is not an formally organized race. There are no marshals or medical staff.

- You start when you arrive and you finish when you leave. The official ride time is from 6h00-11h00. No registration, no number plates, just pitch up and ride and go home.

- The WTF Hill is a public road and there is no road closure, please be careful and respectful of vehicles, assume they have right of way.

- Cyclists will ride up at 10km/h with others coming down at 50km/h. Please keep left at all times and respect riders coming from the front. Collisions on this hill will likely have medical consequences.

- In order to qualify for either boasting rights or prizes, you need to log your ride on Strava. Unfortunately this is the only way to regulate a social event.

- There is a Strava Club for Pretoria East MTB. You need to join this club and log your ride on Strava. Please see the link below.

- Please check the number of laps you have done and post this in your Ride Name so we can pick this up without having to open every ride, eg "WTF Hill Challenge 5 laps".

- Strava is the sole judge and it is your responsibility to ensure you complete the lap completely so Strava can pick it up. Suggest you ride 20m or so past the top & bottom to make sure it is a complete lap.

- Winners will be those with the most Strava completed hill repeats.

- Plumb Tech 24/7 will do the lucky draw for those with more than 3 laps.

- We will announce the winners on Tuesday on the Pretoria East MTB Facebook group. We will arrange a meeting at Ed's Diner, Parkview on Tuesday  evening 18h00 to hand over the prize money, drink the obligatory milkshake and take a picture.
